Boron segregation to {311} defects and transient enhanced diffusion (TED) of boron atoms during thermal annealing were investigated in detail using implanted superlattice and Si bulk wafers. We observed that (1)boron atoms segregate to {311} defects during low temperature annealing, (2){311} defects were formed in the area where the self-interstitial concentration exceeds 3×1017cm3, (3)free self-interstitials in the region beyond the implanted range causes initial rapid enhanced diffusion prior to the onset of normal TED.
